We love it when it’s nearing the end of the year. Often, this period signals to us that it’s time to take a much-needed break after a year’s worth of hustling city life. But while it’s the winter season, it doesn’t mean you have to travel to a colder climate — some of us simply prefer the sun, the sand and the sea.
From The Canopi at Bintan to Bondi Beach in Sydney, if you’re heading to these beach spots, you’ll want to look spectacular. Here’s our selection of the swimwear and cover-ups you’ll need to look all put together during your sunny adventure.
